ofcourse there is a lot of space but not contiguous space.
Whats your extent size and upto what number does your segment unable to extend?
Try to alter the tablespace and decrease extent size or add more space to the tablespace.

Whats your extent size >>

select next_extent from dba_ind_partitions where partition_name='SYS_P147'

201326592


and the exact error i get is ..

ORA-1683: unable to extend index IE_NPGDATXREF_IDX_1 partition SYS_P147 by 24576 in tablespace INDEX08

but my questions,how this happens when there is 4 GB free space.

Because at 24577 there is data.
Quote:

Cause: Failed to allocate an extent of the required number of blocks for index segment in the tablespace indicated.

I don't think so.

24576 is the number of blocks, not the location. In 8k blocksize, this translates to 201326592 bytes.
Your first statement is correct, there is not 201326592 of contiguous space in the tablesspace.
Locally managed tablespsaces is the answer, or if the datafiles are not in autoextend mode, follow what the error message says.
